Honestly guys... this is annoying like hell. Can't we just appreciate this chapter ? I go back to making soaps... LOL
Before leaving... at least I think I just want to make an analysis of this art, and I hope people will listen to me...
THIS is a TEAM7 art. It's representing the team7 dynamic. It's the same as this old art with Sakura clinging on Sasuke on an eagle.
///Naruto is at the front in both arts. (Naruto is the hero)
///Sakura is clinging to Sasuke in both arts. (that's what we're supposed to believe about her, and that's what she was doing during almost all the manga)
///Kakashi is behind them in both arts. (because he's their sensei, he's pushing them forward)
It's symbolizing the BASIC team7 dynamic, and Kishimoto would NEVER reveal his ending on that kind of art. Just think 5seconds from his position. Would you reveal the ending ? He's just representing the characters with what we know as a basis about them.
Just imagine if Sakura would be all lovey dovey on Naruto ? BAM the ending is ruined.
Sakura is not alone because her character is known for clinging on Sasuke (in a very basic view of course, I'm not talking about all the subtle links between her and Naruto and I don't think Kishimoto wants to show this on that kind of art).
Kishimoto is just representing the basic team7 dynamic. As I said.
This proves nothing.
AT.
ALL.
It's just a mangaka enjoying himself with his characters.
And no, it's not trolling.
Kishimoto's purpose is to ENTERTAIN his fans, his purpose is to make us happy.
He wants us to like his work. So he gave us an extra, while entertaining himself in the making.
That's all.
This art is totally out of the canon story. No need to talk about Sakura evolution here because it's not supposed to be shown in this art.
Please, just think about what I just said.
